I am creating a web page (as a student) with html / css / jsp pages and servlets hosted on a Tomcat server. (all local in my PC - Windows 7) As part of the exercise you also have to create a MySQL database and access it from jsp / servlets.
I have a couple of existential doubts that I'm sure are lack of knowledge of how everything fits, I would really appreciate it if someone can clarify them. link
1) Is the database file in a specific folder? I can not find any database files that I create as a test from MySQL.
2) Is there a specific folder in Tomcat where the database must be placed in order to access it from the jsp / servlets code?
Thanks
